Introduction Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless and nonirritating gas. CO poisoning is a preventable cause of morbidity and mortality. After the late diagnosis of some CO-poisoned patients, we undertook a chart review to identify characteristics of patients with CO poisoning to help with management of future patients. Methods We retrospectively evaluated the charts of 323 adult emergency department patients diagnosed with CO poisoning between January 2002 and December 2003… Expand
